I hope it pans out!
The last time I heard about someone being excited about new mechanics/paradigms in gaming it was Ken Levine. And then he disappeared for a decade. “narrative Legos” were the big idea.
He’s back, with Judas. We’ll see if he managed to invent new mechanics or not.
In the case of Judas tho, I’ll just be happy if it’s a good story and spectacle driven game like Bioshock Infinite.
I can imagine a Doctor Who episode that starts with banana phobia, and later the Doctor discovers there are aliens posing as bananas in Sweden. Some young children can see through their disguise. And that’s why the minister has had a phobia since childhood.
